I've agreed to organize it, and I'm willing to chair it. Here's the agenda so far (and yes, we will be adhering to time limits): http://wiki.bworks.org/doku.php/2008-04-12-agenda I am assuming the shop will be open for its normal (10:00 - 1:00) hours, and the meeting will start when the doors are locked at 1:00pm. If Doc wants to start it sooner, or close the shop earlier, then of course we can adjust the meeting time. And I agree with Dave -- I look forward to learning more about what all the other volunteers have to say. Many thanks to you all. Theresa
